I love to make things interesting. If I'm making pumpkin pie, I have to add my own element of style to it- it can't be just a normal pie (see here). I'm the same way when getting dressed. My typical process when putting an outfit together is to put on something relatively simple and then tweak it by adding something that says 'me'. This cowl definitely fits that bill. I love that it is a classic chunky knit cowl scarf, but it goes the extra mile with it's bow! How darling is the ribbon tied around the scarf to accessorize the cowl?

I really felt the love for the handmade and small business community this weekend and am happy to report that I have found another place shop and score deals from great and unique shops! 9thandelm.com is a deal site that offers exclusive deals from the best handmade and independent designers. They offer items that are often different from what you find on other deal sites because they are from handmade and independent designers. I fell in love with this cowl from Gertie and Baxter as soon as I saw it and I loved looking through all of the other featured designers items as well.
